I have just booked a 2 week holiday from 25th June 2009 with my boyfriend.
We have chosen Pefkos because of all the really good reviews. We are staying at the "Matina Apartments" as again, the reviews are fantastic!
We both like to go on walks to different towns. Can anyone tell me where you can walk to from Pefkos that won't take all day to get there?!
The only other thing that bothers me is....how far from Faliraki is Pefkos? I have seen it on the maps on the internet but I have no concept of how far that would be to drive. I just want to get away from the whole 18-30 Faliraki crowd and don't really want to be in close proximity to it! Can anyone tell me how far away it is and to you get any Falirki 18-30 types in Pefkos?
I can't wait to go!
Don't worry, you're a good way from Faliraki.I've never stayed in Pefkos but you can walk to Lindos from there. Marcuschap is the resident expert on that end of the island. I'm sure you'll have a great time and will love Rhodes like most of us "regulars"!
Taxi's are also easy to get from the centre of Pefkos (approx 6 euros to Lindos).
There are also several car hire firms in Pefkos if you are feeling adventurous
you don't get any of the club 18-30 crowd in Pefkos - it is more a family orientated resort with plenty of bars, restaurants and pools to make use of.
The beach isn't massive but it is clean and not far from the town centre (or the appartments you are staying at).
You can relax or go for a look about with no problems and no one trying to hastle you to buy things.
I'm going back there in June for 3 weeks.
I'm not sure that I could walk to Lindos or Lardos from Pefkos in the summer - far too hot. You can get a taxi or bus or you could hire a car. Its about a 20 to 30 minute drive to Falaraki.
To Louiseloulou. Do me a favour when you are on holiday in Pefkos. Take a trip to Faliraki & see what it is like. My wife & I are 60 + and are retiring to Faliraki in May , having been there on holiday on & off for 16 years.It is NOT populated by sex mad larger louts !!!!
Opinions on walking differ greatly, i think the walk between Lindos and Pefkos is fine, others say it's a killer! The walk takes me about 45 minutes but you've got a good hill as you leave Pefkos and again just before you hit Lindos. I've not walked to Lardos so not too sure how long that would take, i'd guess at around an hour (depending on which end of Pefkos you are), that walk would be pretty flat all the way though.
